The Play Chip Challenge

htrain · #1 10-24-2007, 01:23 PM

Hello Folks,
I am starting out with 1k play chips on Pstars and when I have 1mill I will sell these chips. When I get the 10$ I am going to start out at .2/.5 Omaha hi/lo and from there gradually work my way up to $5/$10 omaha hi/lo and will set my goal at obtaining 2k
I've gone up to $5/$10 from a $12 dollar stake and at the highest point ended up with $1500, but I think this is far more interesting. Also, at the time I had a place, and now I'm homeless and couchsurfing. So I think this adds much more interesting elements to the game. I know Ferguson was doing something like this with no money, but he is rich and I am poor. I'm posting here more as a documentation to myself and a couple buddies more than anything. My username on stars is the pathofblood
I doubt it will be very interesting the first 4 or 5 days of the challenge though. Ok, GL to all,
H-Train

Hey guys,
Thanks for the comments

I'll have to respectfully pass on the job right now. But when I'm done with the challenge I'll definitely check this job thing out. Cheers, and GL to you all and have fun!
